help Bombay Sapphire FAQ
What makes Bombay Sapphire different from ordinary London Dry gin?
Bombay Sapphire uses vapour infusion, suspending its botanicals above the spirit during distillation rather than boiling them directly in the liquid. The brand identifies ten essential botanicals, including juniper, coriander and citrus peel.
Where is Bombay Sapphire distilled?
Bombay Sapphire is produced at Laverstoke Mill in Hampshire, England. The distillery still uses Carterhead stills named Tom and Mary, which date from the 1830s.
What botanicals can you taste in Bombay Sapphire?
Juniper provides the traditional gin character, while coriander and citrus peel add spicy and fresh notes. The complete recipe is built around ten botanicals, although the brand does not publish every proportion.
Which cocktails work especially well with Bombay Sapphire?
Its bright citrus and juniper profile suits a gin and tonic, a Negroni or a dry Martini. A simple gin and tonic lets the vapour-infusion character remain easy to taste without adding a complicated mixer.
